Description:
The Neighborhood Developers (TND) is hiring a full-time, hybrid Lead Grant Writer to take the lead on production and reporting of TND’s grants and service contracts.

Do you believe people with lived experience should make the policy decisions that affect them? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then this position could be for you! Organization Overview TND is a non-profit community development organization with a mission to create strong neighborhoods enabling community members to secure a stable home, achieve economic mobility, and determine their own future. We build affordable homes, organize community leaders, and, through our CONNECT program, support households to access public benefits, find better jobs, and expand their financial prospects.
